Default Sean Robinson's Eagle collection

Sean has sent images of his Eagles, he has three the smallest is 44" then comes the mighty 66" and if that isn't big enough the colossal 88" monster.

As you can imagine, Sean has to pick up and put down these models as his schedule is extremely busy so they are all work in progress. I have never seen an engine bell that is almost the size of a kettle...!!

Check out these images:

Default New Thread.

I'd just posted a reply on the Straker's Car thread when I spotted this new spin-off. The eagles look brilliant, which begs the question of is there a purpose other than being for show, I mean an 88'' Eagle would be some ornament on a mantlepiece. Many thanks to Sean for sending the images, now we have two great threads at the same time.

Hi Geoff,

Sean and I have something else cooking so soon to be three threads.

No, I won't say what just yet because we are still planning and scheming.

I don't know why he doesn't just make a full sized one I can play with.

That's just incredible!
But if you don't mind a little constructive criticism, in the third pic from the top, the CM looks a little 'fat' and perhaps too short?
It may just be the lens distortion of the camera?
Either way - my mind's going crazy thinking about the level of detail available at such a scale...

I think it'll admit all the details on a 1:1 scale ship.Yes the CM seems a little shorter and fatter than what would correspond to the rest of the vehicle.I would like to see your question answered,too.
